I've had PPMS for more than twenty years. I have not been able to walk
for the last ten years so I spend most of my time either in a
wheelchair or in bed. My most annoying symptom is my legs jumping
about when I'm sitting in my wheelchair. They sometimes jump off the
feet support.

Anyone know a good treatment for jumpy legs?

Not something I've ever had to deal with.

Still, an idea to consider: Get Velcro straps to hold them to the feet support.

The doctor suggested Velcro the straps. I tried them but they are not
strong enough to hold my legs. My physio says anything that can hold
legs will result in a muscle strain. That's why I need some sort of
drug to stop my legs jumps. I've had deep Botox injections but they
did nothing.

I have tried cannabis in various forms. It doesn't help with jumpy
legs but it has other benefits.
